The Study Group on Central Clearing Interdependencies (SGCCI) meets in Washington DC. The joint study group - whose members include the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), the Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI), the Financial Stability Board (FSB), and the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) -  was established in July 2015 to identify, quantify and analyze interdependencies between CCPs and major clearing members and any resulting systemic implications. The group is focusing on interdependencies that may have implications for global financial stability. This includes smaller market participants or CCPs that have interdependencies with larger banks or CCPs. However, the aim of the study group is not to map all of the central clearing interdependencies around the globe. Read their 2016 progress report here.
